Pros

Good Benefits, 401k match with vesting, vacation time (3 weeks plus sick)

Cons

Bonus structure isn't always explained well, communicated on payout dates or how to achieve these goals. Budgets are written by leadership and handed down to managers without a good understanding of property operations or the ability to learn it. Regional leadership does not visit properties to assist with issues, trainings, or check ins to ensure overall employee satisfaction. Often we received OOO for hair appoints, regional uploading on social media during work hours and not returning calls. As a manager, we were also put in awkward positions when regional leadership would release employee data regarding tax withholdings or rent payments too us to manage, even though that should have been communicated directly with Human Resources. There was definitely a favoritism game played that created a toxic work environment.

Pros

Decent health plans, Ok PTO but you’ll never get to use it.

Cons

Poor management in every levels, always no budget for anything, abusing employees and never pay them right, long hours and always on-call with no extra pay for being on-call, lots of changes with employees, a lot of terminations, favoritism, discrimination, disappointed with HR since they don’t do their job. Horrible company I will never work for them again!!!

Pros

Berkshire as a whole is a good company, the benefits are good and the training department is fantastic

Cons

The RDU regional is terrible. She plays favorites, and is obviously Berkshire’s golden child. Just because her numbers are good doesn’t make her a good leader! She plays favorites with the property managers and let’s them get away with everything!
